    Baseball is at its best when you have two great pitchers having a duel. Loves me some 2-1 games

    Yeah, it's too bad they burn those guys out by playing a million games a year. And then it's a scandal when someone's taking steroids. The MLB created the problem with the insane schedule they force teams to maintain. The human body doesn't absorb strain like that on the muscles without either permanent damage or pharmacology of dubious legality, probably both.

    Basketball may be the worst spectator sport. The court is just too small to allow a proper crowd.

    Basketball

    Basketball is awesome to play, but I can't get into watching it.

    It's a good sport, and one that's very demanding on athletes, so I respect them. It's just not for me.

    I saw some Olympic basketball last year. Was waaaay at the back, but they stack the seating so steeply you're close enough to see everything even from there.

    I just saw a picture gallery of this cruise ship that was adrift for 5 days. It is so insanely fucking weird.

    Like I was thinking "Less than a week couldn't be that bad" but then you look at the pictures and it looks worse than post apocalyptic Dubai in The Line. Like a raided refugee camp. It's like the engine went out and everyone made a collective effort to immediately build temporary tents on the decks with sheets and smear all the walls with feces.

    NHL hockey is good live, and just about any game played by your Alma Mater will be fun to check out.

    But any pro sport where the seats are all bought out by douchebags who only use the games to entertain business contacts and clients, as is the case with basketball, everyone should just stay home and watch on TV, seeing a lot more detail with a mountain less bullshit.

    Tents on the deck I can understand.

    Manchester.

    For some reason we also had an ice hockey team and as it was fun to watch we decided to see if other sports were also fun. They were not.

    Well, things may have changed. In my defense, being a Seattleite, it's been a while since we had a pro basketball team (if you choose to describe the Sonics as such) to even try and score tickets to go and see live.

    We might get a new team soon, I just hope the taxpayers don't get handed the bill for the stadium to lure them here. (We will.)

    Holy shit.

    We're incredibly fortunate that nothing like this happened during the numerous alerts that occurred in the Cold War, where various Soviet premiers had to decide in a matter of minutes whether the West was launching missiles at them. Fingers poised on the button.

    The narration said that there was urine and poop all over the floors, not actually witnessed on those photographs though.

    Probably just the rumor mill shitting all over the floor, like it did with the Superdome situation after Katrina.

    It's normally fine as you can drink and chat to your friends while they casually observe men in tiny shorts pretending to have a hurty knee.

    An important exception is any kind of final and the time I was tricked in to going to Newcastle and had to sit through an entire match without drinking because my friends thought I'd cause trouble.

    It depends heavily on the city, its culture, and the fans.

    It's not that way in Boston, for example, where the businessmen are priced out. It's not that way in Oklahoma City, where not being a fan is a sin. It's not that way in Memphis, where business entertainment usually takes place a block up and involves everyone getting drunk and full of food.
